What chassis is the rig on? Chev or Ford.
I would start by varifing that the new chassis battery has a ground wire that goes to the engine block. Mine goes to a stud on the drivers side of the manifold behind the AC compressor.
You could use a jumper cable between the negative battery post and the engine.
I also installed a short ground wire jumper between the coach and house batteries.
Fords are set up a little different on the positive side, but still needs the ground wire to the engine.
